[IRCA] KMBD 1590 / KTIL 94.3
I called KMBD 1590 Tillamook OR this afternoon to inquire about the historic KTIL call letters moved from 1590 to 94.3 some years back, as I heard the FM has been sold and to be moved to the Portland metro area (lic. Gov. Camp). I found the AM is also for sale (KMBD), as the owner Van Moe wants to retire as he is over 65 now. They have no clue what will happen. It will be a shame if those KTIL calls go. The station came on in 1947 with 250w with the KTIL calls. Then bumped up to 1 KW a few years later. Then in 1967 went to 5/1 KW U2, where they are today. Added FM 104.1, then sold that to Metro Portland (Scappoose)and moved to 94.3 from 94.1, when Cannon Beach moved. I was born in Tillamook. A friend worked there for a number of years. 73, Patrick Patrick Martin KGED QSL Manager ___ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: irca@hard-core-dx.com

Though today in the Escape a Spanish speaking station was over KMBD at times. Could this be KLFE? It's possible but is unikely. KLFE has been heard most recently with Russian programming. However, this morning (Sat.) they are carrying programming in an (Asian) Indian dialect.

Re: [IRCA] KMBD-1590
Pete, Thanks for the information about KLFE. The Spanish speaking station I heard sounded like a full time Spanish/Mexican station.

Re: [IRCA] KMBD-1590
Although I haven't spent much time monitoring lately, I recall the Ventura CA station used to be spanish language. Actually they'd change every year or so, back and forth. Also I used to hear a Tijuana area station on 1590. Might be one of them. Don vroom...@comcast.net wrote: Pete, Thanks for the information about KLFE.

Re: [IRCA] KMBD-1590
Don, Heard the station around 1:20 pm PST. I figured the station was in the Pacific Northwest. KFBK 1530 was not being heard at this time, at times KFBK can be heard during the days here. Thanks for the help Don. Dennis, Salmon Creek, WA - Original Message - From: Donald K.

KUNX-1590 Ventura is still Spanish. I just checked. It's semi-local. At night it has a huge null toward the Bay Area to protect KLIV. 73 Donald K.
